Hello, I'm using some S2895 for various purposes, as webservers, databaseservers and workstations. Most of them are populated using 2 * Opteron 265 in stepping E2. They work like a charm _after_ upgrading the BIOS to version 1.05e_beta or later[1]. But it's necessary to use /boot/loader from 7.0 since later version won't work to some bios-bugs.
